The Conucctleut Democratic lluauelal
plank Is spoken ol by the Chicago Trf
bunt in the following iinivjuivoeal twins
of praise :
The Connecticut Democrats, while be
traying their party prejudice in declar
ing the resumption act of last winter a
"deception and a fraud,'' anil demanding
Its repeal, qualify that demand by rcipilr
Ing that congress shall Mib'tituto there
for seme other uleasuru leading to re
sumption, nud the retiring ol the green
back currency. This is plain, direct and
practical. The resumption nut was merely
sentimental. It wai a declaration of
faith, but specie payments can not be ac
complished by mere faith in tho wUilom
ol that policy. Something more U e--en-tlal
to bring about thu specie resumption,
and wj have no objection whatever to
the repeal ol thu resumption act If con
gress will give the country in place of it
something that Is practical.
We suggest these resolutions of the
Connecticut Democracy to the
sousldcratlou of our readern ot
all parties. They are In admira
ble contrast with thu unmeaning and
equivocating nlatlonns of manv State
conventions, and particularly of "thu re
cent convention in Indiana, w here a large
ami cntuusiastlc convention, which in ad
dition to all its other fuuclio.is hail n

days ago, Mrs. I'olhcnitis gave out that
she was robbed, that ten thousand dol

feloniously nbstrnciX.'d Ironi her bcre.ni.
Mrs. Polhcnius laid In her complaint to a
police judge who Immediately took steps
to discover the tide! and recover the
money. It proved to be a dilllcult case, a
very mysterious case. One arrest was
made, but not the slightest evidence
could be produced and thu suspected
man was discharged. Mrs. l'olhumus
was persistent and haunted the police
courts like a shadow. Thoolllcers were In
dustrious but neither thief nor money
could bu found. On Saturday last, when
Mrs. J'olhemus made her appearance In
the police court, n bird ot tin) air or some
thing chc had whlspeied something to
Mr. Justice Wandell. Mrs. Polheinus
was shown into a private room, and
there, In the face of her indignant pro
tects, she was searched by two women.
The searchers were rewarded by the dis
covery or eight bank books and about
lll'ty dollars In money, all snugly con
ccaled in Inside pockets ol her clothing.
Her assumed extreme anxiety to recover
her lo,t property was rewarded bevond
Iter expectations, and Mrs. Polheinus
will now have to Invent some other plan
to escape disagreeable attentions ol
her too anxlom, relatives.

As for thu noble swells themselves,
